I'm going to assume you're young and incredibly naive, because otherwise, given the state of affairs of national politics in the United States for the past 8 years, you should know better. Look at the events that took place in 2020 surrounding the election that people were lied to and told it was "stolen." The Capitol Building was ransacked. Several county officers were jailed for refusing to do their job and certify results that they didn't like. Now they're opening the door to make overturning the election legal. You think they're not going to take it?
The key statement It’s important to point out, however, that the Democrats did not question the actual counting of ballots in 2016, as Youngkin’s statement implies, or that Trump won the election.
That is just more propaganda to justify trump’s attempt to steal an election he clearly lost.
Clinton didn’t claim she won, she won the popular vote by 2 million votes, that’s what she claimed which is accurate, but she conceded defeat. Trump still hasn’t to this day.
Our entire system relies on people playing by the rules, trump’s lies are extremely dangerous and have no parallel to any other modern US presidential candidate. Believing his lies or playing whataboutisms with the facts is toxic to our democratic system, I just hope my fellow Americans will wake up one day from this fantasy.
Perfect example of whataboutism. Even if what you say is true, did she refuse to concede? did she then incite her followers to attack the seat of government to stop the certification of his victory? did she pressure election officials to « find enough votes » for her to win a state she had lost? did she continue to tell this lie for years and continually attack the integrity of the electoral system, to the point that now the majority of her followers believe the election was rigged?
I stand by my initial statement, you are repeating propaganda, no matter what your motives are. She didn’t open a door that he then followed into, as if his actions were because of her. He even announced in 2016 that he would never accept the election results unless he won. It’s all a big lie.
The original title of the article was:
> Election Skeptics Are Running Some County Election Boards in Georgia. A New Rule Could Allow Them to Exclude Decisive Votes.
"Election Skeptics" refers to people who doubt that Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
"Election Skeptics" refer to people whose candidate didn't win, or as you said, who deny Joe Biden's win in 2020.
> "Election Skeptics" refer to people whose candidate didn't win
What do you mean by this? It's not as if every 2020 Trump voter believes that Trump won 2020. (Although, I did find out that about 60% of Republicans believe that Trump won 2020. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/feb/02/viral-imag... )

Incredibly naive.
They didn’t deny that. They only questioned the broad definition of "Election Skeptics" as “people whose candidate didn't win”

Hillary Clinton won the popular vote - that is a fact.
Plus, you're just spreading bald-faced and already debunked lies.

The republicans once were the rule of law party.
